Bristol City manager Nigel Pearson has backed Antoine Semenyo to continue studying his own game following his spell on the sidelines 12 months ago and return a better player after his injury set-back.
The striker cast the Robins a big pre-season blow after it was confirmed he will be out of action for up to 12 weeks with a shin injury, ruling him out of the opening games of the season with a return to training likely to be at the beginning of September.
Semenyo sustained the injury earlier this month after making his international debut with Ghana earlier in the month as a substitute in an African Cup of Nations qualifying victory over Madagascar and returned to the club for more checks and treatment.
